"Bruised Love is a tale of love and loss through the eyes of two people who have been surrounded by drug abuse since childhood. The song explores chasing comfort & relief by any means necessary, and the fallout of being in a state of constant desperation." - Tyler Elden
The Wren – tender & full of love “please don’t joke about dying”
"I wrote this song back in the spring after a conversation with a friend of mine. I realized that this person didn't know how loved they were, and I didn't quite have the words at the moment to convey that. I went home and wrote this song the next morning. I kept it pretty simple- I felt there wasn't much more I could say than the words that first hit the page." The Wren
Charlie O’Connor Presents A New Rebellion
"Making art is how I rebel in a world that tells me to behave myself and stop being so sensitive" Charlie O'Connor
The Mysterious Mr. Mavilio
"All I can say is that I hope this resonates with you somehow, the tone is frequently dark, the music is a result of my mental state, my well-being, or un-well-being. It depends on how you read into it." Oliver Mavilio
Clinically Sane – “Eternal Recurrence”
"This particular song is about derealization: a mental state where you feel detached from reality. This song was my way to cope with my personal episode of derealization and how I dealt with it. It's about questioning your own sanity and keeping it all to yourself because of the fear of not being understood. It's something very close to me, as it still happens here and there and that I had to learn to live with. In the end, I hope that with this song I can show that with professional help, we can learn how to live with our mental issues." - Tiago Freitas
Fifi C “Baby Me”
"I wrote Baby Me to give our younger selves the voices we didn’t have. We’ve all become wrapped up in societal pressures, overly self-critical and overwhelmed with life. It’s so easy to take it out on ourselves. But remember how innocent and pure we once were. Would you treat the baby you the same way you treat yourself now? Would you let people treat baby you the way they treat grown-up you? We all know the expression treat others the way you would want to be treated, but I say treat yourself the way you would treat the baby you." Fifi C
Laredo’s Bag – “Last Night”
"hmm.... I'm too old to play games with all of this, so I'll begin by saying that as a seventy-year-old I'm enjoying challenging myself in countless respects by ATTEMPTING to write and produce (solo and with the most basic of "desk" studios) quality songs --- despite my severely limited musical/technical proficiencies". Laredo's Bag
Blue Lush – “Save Me”
"I wrote this track when I was healing from a breakup. When you're young and in love, it's easy to fantasize and idealize a relationship. You think you're gonna be with that person forever and that they're gonna "save you." In reality, you make your own rules. Nobody is in charge of your life like you are. Writing this song was reminding myself of this concept!" - Blue Lush
Lonnieclaire – “Flock o’ Fakes”
"Flock o' Fakes" is an original fusion of grunge and rock but also power pop. A slightly disharmonic, vastly original tune that brings together lofi textures with a familiar sound.
